Cyranno deYourearsarelarge

It is a fact of life that you have to live with trolls. You just can´t get rid of them. They are like roaches lurking about and once in a while you spot running across the floor of your living room or kitchen. And just like in real life, in the virtual world you just virtually smash them into oblivion by hitting the delete key and not give them a second thought.

Every once in a while though you just have to show them just how dumb they really are. Mostly because it´s fun.

A while back I had a troll send me insults. It was childish stuff, mostly name calling. This is where he sounded so stupid. All he could come up with was big ears. So this is my Cryano de Bergerac inspired moment. This guy was so dumb that he could only repeatedly come up with "big ears". I mean multiple times, not just once.

So I wanted to show a little pity for this simple minded troll. Maybe if I can help him see some more imaginative remarks he might head over to his nearest library and pick up a book and read a little. Grant it, I did take about an hour to come up with these but then again I was working and I kept getting interrupted.

9. Scientific Theory- "If a butterfly flaps its wings in brazil and causes a tornado in Texas, you could wipe out a whole country with those"

8. Idiomatic: "Man, you really do mean it when you say You´re all ears."

7. Plagiarism: "Dumbo called, he wants his ears back" - okay this one is so close to Steve Martin´s quote from "Roxanne" but I just had to use it. I couldn´t resist. For that troll´s sake...Roxanne was a Hollywood comical modern version of "Cyrano de Bergerac" with Steve Martin in the lead role - by the way, both of these movies would not be possible if it were not for the original play.

6. Observation: "If you twirl around you can cool a whole room better than a ceiling fan"
